While our physical characteristics set us apart from men, there are actually some psychological similarities that unite all of us in the female gender. Here are six surprising psychological facts about girls. 1. She is more likely to be jealous This isn’t necessarily a negative thing; it just means you’ll have to be careful about how you interact with her friends. Jealousy can crop up in surprising ways and at unexpected times, but understanding why it happens can help alleviate some of that pain. Women feel threatened by other women who seem more attractive or popular than they are, especially if they feel they have no control over their circumstances (such as getting fat). And then there are women who are jealous of other women because they actually envy them—either because they really want what those ladies have or because they’re completely unhappy with themselves and frustrated that someone els...

There are some things in life that are so common, so normal, that you don’t even realize they’re happening.

Even worse, liquor might make some people appear less attractive; howev...

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, created by Abraham Maslow in 1943, illustrates how people satisfy their needs through different stages of life. The hierarchy illustrates that humans cannot achieve self-actualization (the fifth and final stage) if they have not first satisfied the preceding needs on the list. The five stages include physiological, safety, love/belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. 1. Physiological First, we need food and water to survive. A lack of water can kill us within a matter of days while food can sustain us for weeks. As such, these are arguably our most important needs as humans. If you're dehydrated or malnourished, your body will take over as it tries to make sure you survive. You'll have no energy for socializing and other less pressing matters. In short, if you don't take care of your physiological needs first, your ability to meet any other need is severely limited and may not even be possible at all. Luckily, they're also some of the eas...
